Orangeries

Choose the perfect orangery design from Clearview...

Orangeries represent the ideal combination of the benefits and looks of a conventional extension. They are wonderfully light and airy spaces due to the glazed roofs as well as being cosy and inviting throughout the year. Adding an orangery onto your home immediately offers the extra room, light and space you always imagined, as well as being both practical and enjoyable.

We’ll take care of everything, every step of the way.

Design - Think about the orangery you would like, then talk with us about your ideas. Bring some rough measurements or maybe a photograph of the site to our showroom. We will draw up the plans on a computer, showing how it will look from every angle as part of our free design and quotation service.

Survey - One of our expert surveyors will visit your home to take detailed measurements and confirm the position of doors and the opening windows.

Planning Permission - Clearview is able to produce any orangery, subject to Planning Permission & Building Regulations. It may be the case that all necessary criteria has already been met and the obtaining of planning permission is not necessary.

Installation - Unlike many other companies, we handle everything, including digging the foundations, forming the base and building the walls, installing the window frames, roof and fitting the glass. Every step is precisely scheduled so you know exactly who is arriving and when.

Build Process - Adding a conservatory is far less disruptive than a typical home extension. In fact, hundreds of letters from satisfied customers testify to how stress-free the experience. We even get compliments about how hardworking, polite and punctual our building and installation teams have been on site.

Finishing - We will plaster the internal walls, lay the floor with ceramic tiles or flooring of your choice and install the electric sockets and lighting, if requested. If you have ordered a ceiling fan, we will fit it and make sure it is left clean and tidy once we are done. When all the jobs are done, we may ask you to fill in a questionnaire, just to make sure you’re totally happy.

UPVC is low maintenance, long lasting and very affordable...

Certain window and door systems tend to look more accustomed to some orangery designs more than others. On the face of it, the contrast in detail in terms of contours and dimensions visible between differing forms of window and door frames may not seem significant, but they can make a huge visual impact.

UPVC tends to be the favoured option for most homeowners nowadays due to the superb thermal efficiency it provides, its undeniable durability and because it requires very little care and attention long-term. The contours and shape evident in the material have been specially assimilated into the profile and its flexibility allows UPVC to be cured to enable the creation of elaborate gable ends.

Aluminium is all about sleek sightlines and maximum glass areas...

A growing number of orangeries now come fitted with aluminium windows and doors for that contemporary touch, as well as aluminium bi-folding doors. The slim profile is an enticing selling-point, as it permits the incorporation of a large expanse of glass to draw in huge quantities of natural sunlight. The powder-coated finish and sublimated woodgrain effect regularly applied to an aluminium frame also screams with sophistication.

You could be forgiven for mistaking Traditional Heritage for authentic timber...

For that age-old look that never seems to date, Heritage windows are a contemporary revelation, as they exactly replicate a 19th century design in the most intricate of detailing, and feature a flush fitting sash. Integrated into an orangery design the results are nothing short of stunning. For extra authenticity, they even include traditional hardware such as peg stays, butt hinges and monkey tail handles.

Contemporary home living and the inclusion of Bi-Folding Doors go hand-in-hand.

There are several viable door options for your new orangery so you need to carefully decide which style of door works most appropriately in terms of how the space will function and your choice of lifestyle. A double French door, bi-folding door and a sliding patio door all have their own different individual attributes but what they all collectively share is the ability to secure your orangery when locked and provide a pathway into the garden when open.

A bi-folding door will be one of the most eye-catching aspects and main talking point of any form of orangery design. The boundary between the indoor and outdoor world will be completely broken each time the concertina effect is put into operation to fold them open. Closure of the doors is just as effortless, requiring the minimum of stress and taking just a few short seconds.

French doors provide double the access, light and ventilation than a single door.

You can expect double the benefits of a conventional door when you have a set of French doors fitted as they’ll be double the amount of natural light, double the ventilation and double the access. Most homeowners utilise them as a method of creating a link to an outdoor patio or decked area, but it’s just as viable to employ them internally to connect a kitchen with a dining room or living room.

Patio Door are the sliding solution which glides along its runners in elegant fashion...

The adaptableness of a sliding patio door is a significant advantage to those who find themselves short on internal and external space as well as having a limited berth to integrate a door. The views and increase in natural light that will find its way into your home as a consequence of their presence will justify the investment. There’s no chance of them blowing open like hinged doors in windy weather too.

An orangery is a place you should enjoy in total comfort...

The unfussiness of a Classic Roof is one of its most appealing attributes, as is its ability to facilitate a large expanse of glass. Because of its minimalism, it can be applied to varied shaped and sized orangeries even if it happens to be a complex or bespoke design. Its reliability cannot be called into question either as proved by its durable exterior when tested again and again over the years. Polycarbonate can be stipulated for a Classic Roof but a glass roof tends to be the most popular choice.

Sleeker slightlines of a cornice roof...

The external cornice is what differentiates this style of roof from the Classic Roof as it adds a huge amount of warmth and charm to the overall appearance. It works beautifully at merging the brickwork walls with the glazed roof, acting as the perfect finishing touch to the design. To ensure it remains complementary to the orangery roof a number of cornice colours are available.

Lantern Roofs offer most spectacular views of the skies above...

The presence of one or more Lantern Roofs, also recognised as atrium roofs, was a staple feature of the orangeries that existed centuries ago. They look significantly different to how they did back then due to the period of evolution but thanks to modern technology and innovation their performance has advanced rapidly and they therefore offer so much more than their predecessor. It sits comfortably atop of the orangery and supplies incumbents with the most spectacular views of the world above them.

Choosing roofing tiles that match those of the main building will keep your house and orangery in-sync...

A solid roof is a different proposition altogether and while overhead light and views are sacrificed to some extent, the external look and internal feel of a solid roof orangery is something that a glass roof can match. Light may be sacrificed but privacy is gained, and roof windows and integrated spotlights will ensure that you’re never left in the dark. Choosing roofing tiles that match those of the main building will keep your house and extension in-sync and solid roofs are not just reserved for new build projects – they can also be used to refurbish an existing orangery.

Your orangery can be decorated in one of many hundreds of colours and finishes...

UPVC can be adorned in any number of eye-catching finishes as it undergoes a specially developed paint application process so even the most unique colour is achievable. Whitegrain, White, Chartwell Green and Cream are consistent favourites with shades such as Black, Grey and Irish Oak just as well-loved by present day homeowners.

All our powder coated aluminium finishes are of the highest quality, and are fade resistant...

The colour found on Contemporary Aluminium is a remarkable feat only attainable due to the 11-stage powder coating process that it endures to give it that natural feel and look. Sublimation is the conflicting procedure undertaken to produce Contemporary Aluminium woodgrain which results in a Walnut, Oak and a Rosewood finish that looks just like traditional timber.
